purchased Boerne Lots 119 and 120 of the Kuhlmann and Ryan Addition. On Jun 17,
1873, the Gesangenverein, at a regular meeting, resolved that they donate lots
119 and 120 to the Boerne School Society provided and on the condition that the
boerne School Society will within one year build a schoolhouse with at least two
rooms. On August 18, 1874, the Gesangenverein resolved that whereas the Boerne
School Society had completed a two room schoolhouse on Lots 119 and 120 by June
17, 1874, that they be granted the deed to the two lots, "in consideration of
the benefit accruing to us and our children from the establishment of an
institute of learning in the Town of Boerne." This, then, was the beginning of
the first official public school in Boerne. This building was used as
classrooms, a lunch room, exercise room at various times while a school. It
became a workshop and storage area, then finally, offices for the city after the
property was purchased for the City Utilities.
